  1. Pence, what a wimp?!!? A crowd was chanting, “hang Mike Pence” and the president shouldn’t be charge🤦‍♀️

    1. Yes, *a crowd* was chanting…
      Not the former president.

      I think you need to slap your face a few more times for that to sink in.

  2. Fun fact: of the 800+ arrests made for Jan 6 related activities, not a single person has been charged with insurrection.

    1. @Joe Dead only a few of the 800+ were controversially charged with sedition. Most were charged with trespassing. No one was charged with insurrection.

    2. There is no correlation between what happened on Jan 6 and what they’re accusing Trump of. Trump was as perplexed by the riot as was everybody else. His first words were It’s Antifa when he saw the rioters taking over in the Capitol. Cheyney, Schiff, etc worked hard for years to tie Trump to the happenings of that day.

    3. Its all their own antifa members and blm and FBI informant. 1000 members for Satan’s 1000 year rain. These people are sick!!!!

  3. Mike Pence: _”I don’t know that it’s criminal to take bad advice from lawyers.”_ If you rob a bank because your lawyer told you to, are you supposed to be exonerated and cleared of any wrong-doing just because your lawyer told you to? Mike Pence doesn’t have the sense that God gave a watermelon. (5:20)

    1. @Gurtius Maximus WTF are you talking about? Flynn was convicted for lying to the FBI about his contacts with the Russian ambassador regarding sanctions. Stone was convicted of lying to the FBI about his involvement in posts on WikiLeaks by Russian intelligence. It’s a matter of public record. The Democrats wont’s share it? You’re delusional.

    2. @Elizabeth Stanley I guess he was confused, because two years before the ban he called Epstein a “terrific guy who like beautiful women like me, and some of them are on the younger side.” HIs ban doesn’t take his name off the flight logs or erase that glowing description.

    3. @Andy Know what? Every media outlet in the world, except probably Fox, has reported that Trump’s name was on the flight logs and that Flynn and Stone were convicted for lying about their contacts with Rusia.

    4. @The Plumber Just out of curiosity, when was the last time you had an encounter with reality? “Nothing burger”? The man is guilty AF, of a MINIMUM of 4 felony charges.

    1. Illegally stormed a presidents house. I better see results ASAP!!!! Wait….. nothing and the FBI involvement. Dems have become so left, we need arm bands for them like the SS

    2. There is no correlation between what happened on Jan 6 and what they’re accusing Trump of. Trump was as perplexed by the riot as was everybody else. His first words were It’s Antifa when he saw the rioters taking over in the Capitol. Cheyney, Schiff, etc worked hard for years to tie Trump to the happenings of that day.

    3. @Mia Vos lie some more fool. did you forget his rally before the riot? his speeches? the lies he started before the election? yeah i BET you did. just like you know trump lies and grifts yet you’ll cherry-pick which to believe and which to pretend never happened.

  4. How can you have this person on talking to what is right or wrong when he was fond to do a lot things that was really wrong and in my opinion should be in jail

    1. @TI-86 I don’t think it’s an “attack” but an interruption of government proceedings was the intent.
      The attacks on officers were initiated by some Trump supporters who took what Trump said as an actual command for attack, according to some of the Trump supporters arrested.

      None of this is my opinion, just observations.

    2. @TI-86 how about the rhetoric and calls to action from countless democrat congressional members. Did that mean burn down the country???

  5. Anyone gets that for a solid half of Americans, the “thing” here is his having been the president of the United States. Loyalty is a gift one offers to a very specific someone showing qualities reflecting an ideal long searched. Every decision’s personal. “Trust no stranger” or giving ears & understanding to others too are personal decisions.

  6. Pence: Trump didn’t take the advice of bad lawyers…. he doesn’t take anyone’s advice. He did this on his own, and expressed glee among his other range of demented emotions that you may have been hung…

  7. BECAUSE THERE WAS NONE!!! DUH!!! NEVER WAS!!! WHAT A HUGE WASTE OF TAX PAYERS MONEY!!! WE THE PEOPLE ARE GETTING VERY TIRED OF ALL THIS WASTE YET WE ARE THE ONES SUFFERING!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

  8. Ahhh CNN…
    2016:”we got him this time!”
    2017:”we got him this time!”
    2018:”we got him this time!”
    2019:”we got him this time!”
    2020:”we got him this time!”
    2021:”we got him this time!”
    2022:”we got him this time!”
    and coming to another year for you
    2023:”we got him this time!”

    Without Donald trump living rent free in CNNs audiences heads , they would fold like an accordian!
